Description
I created this for my dear friend ( Delbeke ) or better known as Alexis. She is a superb artist and does some of the most beautiful and tender images you will ever see. You couldn't ask for a better friend than Alexis as she is supportive, caring and there if you need her. What you will notice first about her is her wonderful sense of humor and her ability to tell stories. This was very clear in her amazing letter to me where she shared so many childhood memories she had in vivid detail. To be honest I spent one night just trying to decide which memory I wanted to bring to life and this one struck me most of all because it shows her adventure and humor so well. Here is to you Alexis, having the chance to get to know you and become friends has been truly a honor. Hugs,
Dave
Rip My Shorts & Were Both In Big Trouble: Alexis love to play outdoors with her little brother in their summer home in Cape Cod. There is was safe and they could run free exploring everything. Their Father built them a tree house that was so cool but still little Alexis loved to climb trees. One day Alexis decided to climb the huge Hickory nut tree in their yard. She went to the top and was so high up she could see everyone from up there. The only problem was her shorts got caught on a tree branch and she was now stuck up there. She tried everything, even taking them off but nothing worked. It was getting late when she started yelling and got her Father's attention. Her family showed up and if you look close you can see her Mother with a angry look on her face below, along with her little brother smiling and pointing at her dilema. Her Dad tried reaching her with a ladder but it wasn't high enough. Finally he told her just to rip her shorts to get free. Her Mother yelled up ( Don't you dare rip those shorts ) and her Father was forced to climb down and call the Fire Department. They showed up with a ladder that was long enough to reach her and in my mind this is the vision of that moment I see. The Fireman finally reaches little Alexis and is struggling to pull her shorts free when she looks at him with a serious face and says ( Rip My Shorts Mister & Were Both In Big Trouble ) The good news is they got her down from the tree. The bad news is the Fireman had to cut the shorts to get her loose so they both probably ended up in trouble. :) Well hope this got some smiles and maybe helped someone relive a personal tree climbing adventure. Take care
Credits will come later as I am at work :)

Wonderful work, Dave. A very fine depicting, of the best childhood memory, from Alexis(DelBeke). The story has a very high value of humor too. She must be a humoristic girl. I got a huge smile from this one. I think the fireman got a huge smile too.. And Alexis hopefully got a new pair of shorts. Great and entertaining #;o)

Uh oh! Mom's arms are folded and that's definitely not a happy expression on her face! Funny story! This is a superb image! Excellent composition! The POV is wonderful, looking down on them, with them in the middle of all those branches and leaves! I love the interaction between the fireman and Alexis! He has his hand on her in comfort and to encourage her to hold on to him so he can carry her down, and she is leaning forward with a very serious expression to tell him that there is something he hasn't taken into account yet. The extreme importance of the future condition of her shorts! lol! I think it's very funny that she tried taking the shorts off. I love her expression! Very nicely done!

Una di quelle storie che solo i bambini sono capaci di creare senza rendersi conto di quali rischi vanno ad affrontare !( io uno di quelli ). Molto bella e coinvolgente l'immagine che lascia capire tutto ! One of those stories that only children are able to create without being aware of what risks are to face! (I am one of those). Very beautiful and captivating image that makes it clear everything!

What a super image you created here Dave, and I am still chuckling. Excellent perspective looking down from high up this tree and super work with the posing and expressions too. A great story and picture to go with it. I hope things are looking up in Joplin and that they are starting to get the cleanup underway.
